What Is Labor-Only?
When most people think of a moving company, they picture a full-service crew that loads, drives, and unloads everything. For in-town moves, this is known as local full-service.
Labor-only moving works differently. You handle the transportation (like a rental truck or PODS container) and we connect you with professional moving contractors to help load or unload your furniture and boxes.
While labor-only requires a bit more work on your end to coordinate all the details, it’s considerably more affordable.

The gentlemen from Wingman arrived on during the agreed time frame, and were prepared to work upon arrival. They took care to avoid any damages, and were receptive to requests related to the moving process. I would definitely hire Wingman again. Thank you.
They were all very hard workers Very nice and I enjoyed being here will they worked. They were fantastic. I can not say enough about there work ethics and the great job. Never complaining once about what was needed done. Would definitely use them again.
Luke and Diamonte could not have been more helpful. They went out of their way to put things where I wanted them and were exceptionally careful with my furnishings. They were really polite and friendly and I would recommend them to anyone. Thanks for an easy move!!
The guys were great.. Jerel and his helper went above and beyond for my daughter and I and got us moved out and in they were careful with our things and even helped me break down and set up what I didn’t know how! I will definitely use them again in the future
We have moved 5 times in the past two years and this was the absolute best loading job ever done! The POD was too small for all of our possessions however it was packed so well we only need a small trailer to take what would not fit. Every care was taken with our furniture and Dan explained how they were packing to fit as much as possible many times. GREAT JOB!!!
These guys were great! As soon as my UPack came, they sprang into action. They were on time, took good care of my stuff and even helped me organize my moving truck. Highly recommended!
They Tay & Miguel were both excellent workers, very serious, very helpful, respectful hard working men. They were very careful with my things which is very important to me. If I would move again, I would request them both. Thanks for the referral. M M
These men knew their trade. It was amazing watching them select the right boxes and furniture to fill the UPack cube completely. We ordered an extra cube and they made sure we wouldn't need it. They respected our house and all the belongings as if they were their own. These gentlemen were truly professionals. You couldn't go wrong selecting this company to pack your load. Rich L, Hershey, PA
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING SERVICE! Holiday Helpers were the best movers I've ever had. Very efficient and friendly! Would hire them again in a heartbeat! I recommend for any move!
The Wingmen Moving Company showed up when they said they would and made a courtesy call 15 minutes before they arrival. They moved all of the furniture requested without any damage to the house or furniture. I have worked with the Wingman Moving Company twice and would not hesitate to hire them again. We were very pleased with the overall experience. Thanks again.
Dan and Ramone did a great job. We started a little late, but they let me know their ETA. They were professional, lending their experience to the move. They were very proactive and stayed on top of things. I will use them again next time I have a move in town.
The two young men who completed our move out/truck load were very hard working and respectful. They carefully packed the truck and were very skilled in doing so. Arrived at stated time and completed the move out quickly but cautiously to load without damage. Would highly recommend.

Why Book Your Ashland Move with HireAHelper?
Frequently Asked Moving Questions in Ashland
You've got moving questions, we’ve got answers. Learn what to expect when moving in Ashland.
The short answer is that booking with HireAHelper saves you hours of work, helps you get the best price and value, and protects you and your belongings. Here are some of the key ways HireAHelper makes booking movers better:
- Vetted Movers You Can Trust: Every mover on our platform is vetted, background-checked, and held to our high standards. And if anything goes wrong, we act as your advocate to find a resolution with your mover. If we can’t find a resolution, our $1,000 Service Guarantee will cover you and your items.
- Book in Minutes, Not Hours: Contacting multiple local movers, comparing quotes, determining their availability, and researching their reputation can take hours of work. On the other hand, HireAHelper lets you easily compare the reputation of movers, instantly determine availability, see transparent pricing for each, and book online in just a few clicks—even same-day in many areas.
- Dedicated Customer Support: Last minute questions are normal, and our experienced and friendly team is here 7 days a week to help with anything before, during, or after your move.
- Smart, Affordable Protection Options: HireAHelper offers an easy and affordable way to protect your items during a labor-only move. Our optional SmartProtection covers up to $10,000 worth of belongings, and the lowest tier ($2,500) is only $19.
- Best Price Guarantee: All these benefits must come at a higher price, right? Wrong. HireAHelper’s platform lets you compare rates for different movers, so you can be sure you’re getting a good deal. Found a better price for the same service? We’ll match it. That means you don’t pay extra to use HireAHelper—in fact, you may save money.
All Ashland movers listed on HireAHelper are required to provide standard repair coverage, which reimburses $0.60 per pound for damaged items. Some states may have different rules, and full-value protection is only required by the federal government for moves that cross state lines.
One of the advantages of booking with HireAHelper is that every move includes our $1,000 Service Guarantee. Plus, you can upgrade your protection by adding SmartProtection™—an optional coverage for labor-only moves that offers up to $10,000 in damage coverage, with multiple tiers to choose from.
Yes, professional movers will typically disassemble and reassemble furniture as part of the moving process. However, there are certain items that movers may not be able to disassemble. Learn more about how furniture disassembly and reassembly works when you hire movers.
One set of stairs is always included in your mover’s rate when you book through HireAHelper, but additional sets of stairs may cost more. The best way to get an accurate estimate is to get a quote and indicate the number of sets of stairs that you have—make sure to include stairs leading to a basement if you will have any items that need to be moved into or out of it. Read more about when movers charge extra for stairs.
You should start packing at least three to four weeks before your move, but the sooner the better. If you need to downsize or organize, we recommend starting that process 6-8 weeks before your move when at all possible.
Need to move in a hurry or don’t have time to pack? HireAHelper makes it easy to add professional packing as an add-on to your move. When available, you can get packing help for just several rooms or your whole home.
